Changing my message alert tone

Well yesterday I was sat in a board room conducting a meeting. I’d rushed to the meeting after the train and then the tube had delayed me. It was quite a walk from the tube station so I arrived sweating and late.

They were very gracious. I got time to catch my breath then we began the meeting. BUT I’d forgotten to switch my handset to silent mode.

So…. about half an hour into the meeting, while we were all paused for thought — and thus, the board room was entirely silent — Hugh Grant could be heard yelling “OHHH FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU**” from my laptop bag.

I happen to think it’s really quite funny — when I’m alone or with friends. I was mortified. Luckily, the four people didn’t take offence,… or appear to take offence! Phew.

Ergo I think it’s time I changed my message notification.

Now, on my blackberry, whenever I get a PIN, I have a sonar ping sound — and I think that’s brilliant. I’m loving that. However, I am seeking your suggestions as to what noise, quote or sound I should set for my text message notification.

Some ideas I’ve had:

– Homer Simpson. You can’t go wrong with a ‘AHHHHH’ or a ‘DOH’
– Something from the A Team. ‘I pity the fool?’
– Wall Street Opening Bell?
– “Lunch is for wimps” from Wall Street
– “You’re going to need a bigger boat” from Jaws

What do you think?
